Answer:
1 student.
Step-by-step explanation:
Two thirds of the students preferred chocolate ice cream:
2/3 of 36 is 24 students.
One fourth of the students preferred strawberry ice cream:
1/4 of 36 is 9.
9+24= 35
<em>--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------</em>
36-35=1
Only one student preferred vanilla ice-cream.
Answer:
5th term
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 +3 = 28
Subtract 3 from each side
x^2+3-3 =28-3
x^2 = 25
Take the square root of each side
sqrt(x^2) = sqrt(25)
x = 5
(x could be -5, but there are not usually negative terms in a sequence)
The sum of these will simply be the sum of all the numbers 1 through 26, which is 351.
To compare the two classes, the Coefficient of Variation (COV) can be used.
The formula for COV is this:
C = s / x
where s is the standard deviation and x is the mean
For the first class:
C1 = 10.2 / 75.5
C1 = 0.1351 (13.51%)
For the second class:
C2 = 22.5 / 75.5
C2 = 0.2980 (29.80%)
The COV is a test of homogeneity. Looking at the values, the first class has more students having a grade closer to the average than the second class.
